So, in addition to eating lots of wonderful and delicious food, I also got a chance to help out with some of the ministries at the church.

This is a picture of the mime we presented on Sunday morning. The pastor had asked if I could put a short mime together that helped to illustrate the sermon. After a lot of prayer and a bit of brainstorming we came up with a mime that illustrates how the only way to God is through his son, Jesus and not by just doing good works or trying not to sin.

Since we had limited casting options Peter Bakelaar, one of the long term missionaries, helped us out.

This is the advertisement for our church!

And here's the church! Isn't it so pretty? ... And do you notice the orange sign on the left? That my friends, is the bookstore. Two of my favorite places right next to each other. So nice.

This is the mom and kids club that the church has every week as a way to reach out to the community. When I was there, I helped them make bird mobiles from paper cups and feathers, then the little ones practiced their colours (in English and Japanese), and we read a bible story.
